  1. Hi lads , got an EF XR6 3.45 and driveshaft, what needs doing to fit to xe, trailing arm bush to e series diff end, everything thing else should bolt in i was told, what can be done with handbrake as the whole brake system/calipers is way different to x series

    EF XR6 3.45 diff

    Yep considering the amount of modded cars i think a handbrake cable is the least hurdle to combat lol

    brake booster

    if you put them in a press and gently lever the locking pins one by one then release the press slowly it's a fairly easy job, I got onto a bloke in brassy that does them so i'll send it off and as it's been sandblasted i'll repaint myself here
  17. Ok guys just sandblasted my brake booster which I believe is a PBR, i'm wanting to get a rebuild kit for it but where do I get one from seems near impossible, the number on the brake booster is VH39524F2D8

    brake booster

    ford xe mate, yeah I know PBR are now bosch but no kit is available, said it was a brake specialist thing, I did get onto a shop locally who sends them away but they wanted there cut of commission before they'd hand details over LOL, getting onto a shop in brassy hopefully they can help

    brake booster

    went into repco who rang bosch, pbr no longer make kits and bosch do not stock any so how the fuck do they restore them obviously it's a brake shop thing now
